Скачать или смотреть Confirmation Bias: Are You Trading or Just Looking for Validation?

You have a bias. Long. You're looking at the chart. You see a bullish pattern. There it is. Confirmation. You're taking the trade. But wait. Did you actually analyze the chart? Or did you just find what you were looking for? That's confirmation bias. Seeing only the evidence that supports your existing belief. And it's costing you money.

In this episode of Trader's Audio Edge, we explore what confirmation bias is (cherry-picking evidence that supports your existing belief while ignoring contradicting evidence), how it shows up in trading (finding bullish evidence when you want to go long, missing bearish signals), the Devil's Advocate technique (forcing yourself to build the opposite case before every trade), building bias checks into your routine (listing three reasons against the trade), the echo chamber trap (following only traders who confirm your bias), and building balanced analysis through two-column evaluation.

Here's the test. Next trade you want to take. Before entering, spend equal time analyzing why you shouldn't take it. Equal time. If you can't, you have confirmation bias. Real analysis doesn't fear contradicting evidence. It seeks it. Because truth matters more than being right. Are you trading? Or seeking validation? The difference is simple. Trading analyzes both sides. Validation only looks at one.
